Through four games, the Dolphins offense has only turned the ball over ONE TIME. And that was an interception on essentially a hail mary. 2007 turnovers through four games? 9. That right there shows you the progress the team has made in one year...as well as how great Chad Pennington is at securing the ball.
Well, twice with the Bess fumble, which is still pretty darn good.. Ill take 1 turnover every 2 games all year long.
Technically that wasn't the offense turning the ball over. But yes even with that Bess turnover, that stat is mind blowing. I hope we can continue to keep the ball and not give momentum back to other teams. We don't have to be flashy, but just steady ball control is so crutial to have a chance to win week in week out.
This is a tremendous stat, and if we continue to avoid costly turnovers, we will continue to win games. Moreover, if we can start creating more turnovers on defense, this team will go from a feel-good story to a legitimate contender.
Oops, I didnt even read the word "offense", my bad, I got a case of the Monday's. I still like the stat that we havent given up any 4th quarter points while still scoring 24.
Penalties and turnovers are big reasons we lost those close games last year. We'll be a much stronger team if we continue as we have been.
Hey don't worry, there is lots to be happy about today, and well i did the same thing on another thread. Saying we only had one turnover And i didn't know that second stat line. That is mind blowing for a team that couldn't stop the run or the pass last year. Who would have thought we would statistically improve after losing Zach and JT. Unreal.
